So far, Suggested Purchasing has helped six buyers in Joshen's corporate headquarters to buy for all their locations across 11 states in the US.
Joshen Paper & Packaging CIO Doug Trisnar said: “By centralising our buying to the corporate headquarters, we were able to make fast, accurate purchasing decisions with streamlined communication.
“Looking at our balance sheet, the ROI gained by reduced inventory and lowered cost of goods is evident, and it’s helped Joshen maintain two decades of expansion.”
Established in 1988, the company first installed VAI’s ERP solution suite mainly to help its sales force and customers with powerful technology that could streamline their operations.
